Synopsis
There were four great goddesses in the universe: Thanirra, Aglaireia, Sophryne, and Oraclyne. As centuries of war strained the cosmos's boundaries, Sophryne sacrificed herself and split her soul in two. Thus were born Minerva and Maria—two new goddesses who embody Sophryne's power and wisdom. Now Maria finds her life force slowly draining. Minerva watches her, especially Thanirra, while the shadows of the other goddesses wait silently in the distance. The balance of the cosmos rests in the hands of a slowly fading energy and the tension between the two sisters. Compassion and power, love and jealousy, sacrifice and ambition… Every breath, every star, every human life is stolen from Maria. And now, the story of these four goddesses begins—a journey that will change not only their bond with each other but also the fate of the cosmos.

Chapter 1 - The Dawn and the Present

Once upon a time, there was a spark of life that ignited a miracle.

From that miracle, four goddesses were born—the first four goddesses of the universe.

They were Thanirra, Sophryne, Aglaireia, and Oraclyne.

From these four goddesses came the creation of the many aspects of the universe.

With their grandeur, they breathed life into the cosmos they had shaped.

They held absolute power, both in the heavens and on the earth.

They nurtured the universe and maintained its balance.

However, one day… a great war erupted, threatening the harmony of all existence.

Together with their hosts of gods and goddesses, they fought fiercely against an enemy that sought to shatter the balance.

The battle raged; the sky thundered with the might of the conflict.

Countless lives were lost.

Under Thanirra's command, the forces of heaven triumphed.

Balance slowly returned—though it took an age to heal.

Yet Sophyra, disheartened upon learning who had truly orchestrated the great war, chose to split herself into two separate goddesses: Maria and Minerva.

Three million years later, the four goddesses—now five—sat upon their thrones, each attended by loyal archangels, engaged in a heated discussion among the gods and goddesses.

Thanirra: "Nocthyra, it seems that humans are not so bad after all."

Maria: "Tch… Is this truly something worth worrying about?"

Minerva: -gently brushing Alya's hair and kissing her neck- "Oh, my dear, of course it is something worth worrying about. Why wouldn't it be? Humans are creatures greedy for power. They will try anything to obtain it."

Oraclyne: "What Sophryne says is true. I still shudder at the sight of them sacrificing their own friends just to fulfill their desires."

Aglaireia: "Is it time to end this universe already?"

Thanirra: "As long as nothing has happened that forces us to destroy the universe, we should first try every possible way to resolve this matter. The cosmos have to be live."
